Hi there, my darlings! If you recall, I stumbled across and came to love an unusually little skincare product a few months ago--the konjac sponge! I reviewed and showcased for you all how much I loved the Charcoal infused konjac sponge HERE so when I came upon the opportunity to review a couple of different types of Konjac sponges, I knew I couldn't pass it up! Today I'd like to show you Oleavine's Facial Spongers, one infused with French Red Clay and the other infused with French Green Clay.

First, let's take a quick peek into the product description for the French Green clay version :

Product Description:

100% NATURAL, ECO-FRIENDLY and BIODEGRADEABLE - We painstakingly evaluated countless Konjac sponges on the market before putting our reputation behind this beauty. Our Konjac fiber is grown on the pristine volcanic plains of Jeju Island in South Korea, free from chemicals, pollution and irritants. The sponge hydrates quickly, and lasts longer with proper care than others we tested.

"MIRACLE SPONGE" FOR YOUR DAILY BEAUTY REGIME - No other beauty sponge will work so hard for you! This luxuriously soft sponge gently exfoliates, cleanses, and is naturally pH balanced.

LUXURIOUSLY GENTLE EXFOLIATION FOR DAILY USE - Soft enough for a baby's skin while still providing effective exfoliation. Relaxing and gentle for daily use even on the most sensitive skin. Say goodbye to the irritation caused by harsher exfoliating methods and expensive electronic gadgets. You don't even need to use a face cleanser, unless you want to. Fantastic for battling blackheads and breakouts!

NEW IMPROVED TEARDROP SHAPE - FOR FACE AND BODY - New ergonomically designed teardrop shape fits comfortably in the palm of your hand while the soft rounded point allows you to gently exfoliate sensitive hard to reach areas around your eyes. Ideal shape for the contours of your face but still large enough for your body. You'll love using it in the shower or by the mirror!

Be confident in knowing your new Beauty Sponge is:

Free From Chemicals, Pollution and Irritants

100% Biodegradable and Sustainable (You can even plant it in your flowerbed or compost when you want to retire it)

Not Tested on Animals, and Vegan Friendly

Has NO Added Dyes or Colorants

...And the French Red Clay version :

USES AND IMPRESSIONS : If you read carefully above...the product description for the two products is exactly the same! So it was up to me to figure out for myself which worked best for my skin type! Keep in mind, before each use, the sponges need to be soaked for a few minutes in warm water.
I've been using the sponges on alternate days, the French Red Clay one day, followed by the Green Clay the next, without any cleanser at all. While both left my skin feeling soft and refreshed, for me, personally, the French Red Clay worked best--I found it to exfoliate my combination skin a little better than the Green Clay version and it left my skin smoother and tauter than when I started using it, without the drying effects of a stronger exfoliation product. Overall, totally worth the money! Pick one up and see for yourself!

So there you have it, my darlings! If you would like to pick up your very own Konjac sponge from Oleavine, you can find the French Red Clay infused one on Amazon HERE and the French Green Clay one HERE--each costs just $10 and lasts about a month or so if used daily.

Until next time,
